I have come to two conclusions:

1. Shipper Wars are stupid.
2. I miss choco_cherries and crossovers in general (the rest of this conversation will make more sense if you familiarize yourself with the comm. WHICH IS THE GREATEST COMM EVER).

These two conclusions have met each other and exploded into an idea of awesome: forget about pairing The Greatest Person in the Universe (aka Buffy Summers) with only people on her own show! Crossovers are better!

So I've decided that for the duration of silliness, whenever the Shipping Wars threaten to pop up, I will immediately wax poetical about my favorite Buffy ship. The catch: it's with someone who isn't even in the Buffyverse! People will become confused! And distracted! Scott Allie might make fun of me in a Q&A! Poor "Spray" fan! It'll be awesome!

But the question is: Who will be the other half of that ship? That's what this poll will help me determine!

I've already written Buffy/Tommy and you may have noticed me flailing with joy over John Crichton mentioning Buffy and we all know how I feel about anything remotely involving Enver Gjokaj, so they're the front-runners at this point. But I am open to suggestions! Convince me!


[Poll #1550370]

*Someone mentioned the idea of Enver playing Spike on Gabs' journal, and now I desperately want fic in which a post-"Chosen" heartbroken Buffy gets Victor imprinted with Spike's personality so that she can tell him all the things she never got to say to him....

Emmie, could I write that for the "Who Are You?" fic-a-thon?

Another location drabble turned choco_cherries  entry.  ineffort, that devious genius, came up with the most random crossover pairing ever, and I had to try it out.

Title:  Rebel Waltz
Fandoms:  Gossip Girl, Veronica Mars
Characters/Pairing: Jenny Humphrey, Vincent "Butters" Clemmons
Rating:  PG
Wordcount:  397
Written for: choco_cherries  Week 29
Summary:  "Tomorrow she'll probably shake her head at herself, wondering what she was thinking."  

I feel like this meme was made for me.  Gakked from aisalynn .

1. Buffy Summers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
2. Donna Noble (Doctor Who)
3. Steven Hyde (That 70s Show)
4. Karl “Helo” Agathon (Battlestar Galactica)
5. Malcolm Reynolds (Firefly)

7. Spike Thomson (Press Gang)
8. Logan Echolls (Veronica Mars)
9. Blair Waldorf (Gossip Girl)
10. Ron Weasley (Harry Potter)

Title:  Curves and Muscle
Fandoms:  Veronica Mars/Buffyverse
Characters/Pairings:  Logan Echolls/Faith Lehane
Rating:  PG-13
Challenge entry:  choco_cherries 
Wordcount:  302
Prompt:  erase
Summary:  "She doesn't fit in at all."

Title:  Suns of a Thousand Worlds
Fandoms:  Buffyverse/Doctor Who
Characters/Pairings:  Dawn/Ten
Rating:  PG
Timeline:  post-"Chosen"/post-"Doomsday"
Challenge entry:  choco_cherries 
Wordcount:  500
Prompt:  Unrequited
Summary:  "She'd gotten used to the shadows, but she'd never accepted them.  The suns of a thousand worlds and times?  So much better."

This is a crossover pairing I'd been wanting to write for a looong time, and now that I finally have, I don't know that I've done them justice.  Maybe I'll write a full-fledged fic for this pairing, a couple thousand words instead of just 300.  And the end is schmoopy.  But I hope you enjoy it anyways!


Title: Skeleton Key
Fandoms:  Battlestar Galactica/Buffyverse
Characters/Pairing: Billy Keikeya/Dawn Summers
Rating: PG
Timeline:  AU from "Sacrifice" for BSG--Billy isn't dead--and post-series for BtVS--Dawn is at least 18. ;)
Wordcount: 300
Prompt: None
Dedication:  I missed ineffort 's birthday, so here's a present for you, May!  You deserve better, of course, but this is all I can do at the moment.
Summary:  There's no door she can't open.

Here it is, Izi.  The product of the prompt you gave me for the "6 Degrees" challenge.  I had so much fun writing it (as you can probably tell by the length). Thanks for the awesome prompt!

Also, the title is taken from an Anne Sexton poem, which doesn't feel very Dean-like, but then, this is a fic about three strong women, so I guess its feminist author seemed appropriate.  Let me know what you think--if you have any better suggestions, I'd love to hear them.
